Sunbird ABA team in Lakewood — serving you
In-home ABA therapy in Lakewood, CO
BCBA-led in-home ABA therapy for Lakewood families — at home, at daycare, or by video — with a free insurance check and a real person on the phone.
What in-home ABA therapy looks like in Lakewood
With in-home ABA, therapy happens in your Lakewood living room instead of a clinic across town. Your child's ABA therapist works from goals your BCBA set for your child, using the routines, toys and people that are already part of the day.
Your BCBA visits regularly to update the plan and coach you, and parent training is built in — because the hours between sessions matter as much as the sessions. Read more on our in-home ABA page or our guide to how many hours of ABA a child needs.
Is in-home ABA the right fit for your Lakewood family?
Lakewood is home to about 25,754 children, about 7,400 of them under 5. At the CDC's 1-in-31 estimate, roughly 831 Lakewood kids may be on the autism spectrum.
About 69% of Lakewood children under 6 live in homes where every parent works. If daytime at home is hard for your family, sessions can also happen at daycare in Lakewood — many families mix both.
In-home ABA tends to suit younger children, kids who find new places overwhelming, and families who want to learn the strategies right alongside the therapist. Our guide to home vs. daycare sessions walks through the trade-offs.
Lakewood schools and ABA
Most Lakewood public-school students attend Jefferson County School District No. R-1 (about 75,300 students). If your child has an IEP or a school evaluation, share it with your BCBA: when home goals and school goals line up, kids hear the same expectations in both places and progress tends to stick.

- Diagnosis paperwork. Have a diagnosis already? Send the report. Still waiting on one? We'll help you find an evaluation in Lakewood and get everything else ready meanwhile.
